Description

Explore a detailed comparative study of political and economic development in Africa through this academic work by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book investigates why Angola and Nigeria, the continent's two largest oil-producing nations, followed such different paths after gaining independence. Readers will gain insight into the specific reasons behind the success and failure of Asian-led oil-for-infrastructure deals between 2004 and 2007. While many theories suggest that resource wealth leads to underdevelopment by entrenching autocracy, this text challenges those assumptions by examining why two predominantly autocratic nations produced vastly different political economy outcomes. This book serves as a vital resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in the relationship between natural resources, military rule, and economic stability. It offers a unique perspective on the complexities of resource management and governance in major oil-producing states.
